And how do you get people to collaborate? People have tried making governments based on the idea of everyone working together for the common good. It never ends well.
Ownership in general isn’t some fundamental inalienable right. It’s just that if you let people own things, you give them more incentive to make things. I think intellectual property rights are far too extensive, but if we didn’t have them at all, how would we pay for R&D? How would we pay for big budget games and movies? Maybe you’re happy contributing to openly licensed projects, but a lot of people have to pay for rent and raise a family, and can’t take the time to contribute to things like that even if they want to unless they have the money to support themselves.
Sure it does. All they have to do is fire the CEO and they’ll have so much more money.
They weren’t doing anything smartphone manufacturers haven’t been doing for years. Or those guys that make McDonalds ice cream machines.
The majority of dumb stuff in Javascript is that it has some counterintuitive way of doing something that it shouldn’t do at all, so only teaching the good parts works. So teaching just the good parts is pretty reasonable.
In Python you put it in a multiline string, since it has those but not multiline comments.
But that’s mostly labor humans were doing anyway.
I used to, but now that we have sexbots why bother?
It is a more likely place for people from Twitter to migrate to.
From what I can find, Threads has 10 million active users, and Mastodon only has 1.7 million. Threads may have been a “massive flop” in that they’re not doing as well as hoped and the userbase is declining, but it’s still far more popular than Mastodon, which also has a declining userbase outside of some recent spikes.
He also ran the Boring Company.
They were correct on both counts. Those aren’t real pronouns, and they aren’t calling them that.
Here’s a source that it does require paying for links (scroll to the bottom).
“We’re going to keep standing our ground. After all, if the government can’t stand up for Canadians against tech giants, who will?”
Yes. How can those terrible tech giants advertise for news companies without paying them? What kind of monster doesn’t pay people for the privilege of advertising?
I looked into this more. Reddit (created by Steve Huffman and Alexis Ohanian) merged with Infogami (created by Aaron Schwartz). There are people calling Aaron Schwartz one of the founders, but that doesn’t seem entirely accurate.
Unless the two sides significantly disagree about the chances of winning, they’re both better off avoiding the costs of trial and the risk of not being able to predict the result by settling. Also, they can have NDAs as part of the settlement and it doesn’t set a precedent, so even if it’s a large settlement other people will be less likely to sue than if they lost.
In addition to what others have said, they’re not a vacuum inside. They’re filled with 0.7 atm of argon gas. That would slow the transfer of heat, but there’d still be plenty of heat transfer through convection.
Yes, but fewer people know that word, so it’s less useful. And if you want to have a word to describe every specific version of “meat is bad” diets, you’d need as many words as there are people who avoid meat.
Simply containing each number sequence is a significantly weaker property than having them all occur at the right frequency. Still, while nobody has proven it, it’s generally expected to be true.
